i am using pdns-recursor and would like it to have like a local cache that can be read from a file.

i know pdns-recursor can read /etc/hosts file to serve entries from it before trying to reolve them... is this the best way? will it work ok for a huge hosts file?

What problem are you trying to solve?  If it's to blacklist or redirect millions of domains, then maybe LUA lookup or RPZ will suit you better. Some references:
